For many years, I didn't have a personal bank account and only had a business account. I didn't have an ATM card or a check card for any account. Although I have a credit card, I never use it. It is only for extreme emergencies which never seem to happen. What I did when I was on vacation (normally Miami Beach) was go to the bank once a day and withdraw between $500.00 and $1,000.00, usually on the low end of that. That amount would generally be more than enough for the night. Because I didn't have an ATM card, I didn't have access to any more cash, so I would have to make do on the money I withdrew from the bank earlier that day. The logic there was that I would always have a decent amount of cash for the night, but I wouldn't be able to go apeshit even if I wanted to, because I didn't have access to any more cash.
This is almost exactly what I do on nights when I know I can go out, fuck around, and blow X amount of dollars. If you plan it out earlier and withdraw as much as you can part with, it makes things much easier.
Although I don't know much about Vegas, what you guys are saying about having somewhere between $300 and $1000 in your pocket is good advice for even the most expensive cities in the U.S. Unless you plan getting bottles and tables, $300 is going to be more than enough to drink all night. At expensive venue with $10 drinks, that would be 30 drinks. Even if you're a heavy drinker I don't think it would be possible to go through that many in one night unless you weigh 400 pounds or something.
